🧸☕ Teddy Bear Tea Party Fun! ☕🧸
Mrs. Antal and Mrs. Brombacher’s classes wrapped up the letter “B” and their unit with a special Teddy Bear Tea Party! Students enjoyed a fun-filled day of teddy bear–themed activities, including Going on a Bear Hunt, Gummy Bear Freeze Dance, and a favorite story.
Everyone brought in their favorite stuffed animal and shared a snack while celebrating with friends. What a bear-y fun way to end the unit! 🧸😊

We loved celebrating students who were recognized for demonstrating STAR behavior — Self-control, Taking responsibility, a positive Attitude, and Respect. When students were observed making great choices, their names were added to our STAR Bingo Board ⭐
Once 10 names connected, it was time to celebrate! 🎯 Those students earned an extra prize, presented by Mr. Savokinas and Mrs. Ferentino. 🎁👏
We are so proud of our students for setting a positive example and helping create a respectful, responsible school community. Keep up the amazing work — keep being a STAR! 🌟✨

🇺🇸 AMVETS Americanism Contest at Pittston Area Primary Center 🇺🇸
Kindergarten, first, and second grade students at the Pittston Area Primary Center proudly participated in the AMVETS Americanism Contest! Our kindergarten and first grade students colored the American flag and answered questions about its meaning, while second grade students wrote essays answering the question, “What does it mean to be an American?” and illustrated their ideas with drawings.
The photos featured highlight our schoolwide winners. The top three students from each grade level were selected to represent our school and were submitted to the local and state AMVETS contests.
The AMVETS Americanism Program is a patriotic initiative that supports schools and youth organizations in teaching students—from kindergarten through 12th grade—about American heritage, civics, and citizenship through age-appropriate flag drawing, poster, and essay contests. We are so proud of our students for their thoughtful work and patriotism! 🇺🇸✨ #AMVETS #PAproud #Americanism

Mrs. Luvender set up our Primary Center STEM Lab for a winter STEM challenge ❄️🧪. Our young engineers took on a festive task—designing a way to get a gingerbread man safely across the water! 🍪🌊 Using teamwork and lots of creativity, students brainstormed, built, tested, and improved their designs.
They explored real engineering concepts such as stability, balance, and problem-solving—all while having holiday fun 🎄🧠. We loved watching our students collaborate, think critically, and discover that STEM can be both educational and exciting!
It was a Fun Friday afternoon for Room 222! 🎉 Mrs. Flynn’s class enjoyed Show and Tell along with their STEM Lab activity.

🎄💚 The Grinch visits the Pittston Area Primary Center! 💚🎄
Just when we thought our school was safe… the Grinch paid a visit to Pittston Area Primary Center! 😲
He was spotted sneaking through the halls, stealing school supplies and even making off with a few teachers! 📚🖍️😂
Luckily, his mischief brought nothing but laughter, Christmas cheer, and unforgettable fun for our students and staff on one of the last days before winter break. ❄️🎅

Mrs. Flynn and her class had a great time making memories during this holiday season! Students wrote first drafts and final copies of letters to Santa. Their elf Rudolph took them right to the boss! They made Christmas stockings, ornament wreaths, Christmas trees, and reindeer food. They had Brunch with Santa and had their picture taken with him. They loved wearing their pajamas on Polar Express Day and having chocolate milk and cookies while watching the movie. The Grinch movie was a hit too. Finally they had a Christmas party with a Secret Santa gift exchange to experience the joy of giving during this magical time of year. From our hearts in Room 222 to yours, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! XOXO
Students at the Pittston Area Primary Center enjoyed a festive holiday sing-along featuring their teachers as the performers—complete with fun costumes for a “Holiday Masked Singers” twist! 🎭🎄 The event was hosted and organized by music teacher Mr. Naples and judged by school secretary Ms. Linda and PTO Board Member Ms. Szumski. Teachers performed holiday favorites including Must Be Santa, Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree, and You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch, filling the school with holiday spirit and smiles all around. 🎶✨
